This dictionary pairs 28,000 words in English with Spanish and Quechua. We have focused on the Southern Bolivia dialect of Quechua and Spanish as commonly used in central and South America. Peru became the first country to recognize Quechua as one of its official languages in 1975. Ecuador conferred official status on the language in its 2006 constitution and in 2009 Bolivia adopted a new constitution that recognized Quechua as one of the official languages of the country. In recent years, Quechua has been introduced in intercultural bilingual education (IBE) in Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru. Currently, the major obstacle to the diffusion of the usage and teaching of Quechua is the lack of written material such as books, newspapers, software, and magazines in the Quechua language. Thus, Quechua, along with Aymara and the minor indigenous languages, remains essentially a spoken language.
Quechua is a Native American language spoken by nearly 10 million people, primarily in the Andes region of South America. It is best known as the language of the ancient Inca empire. Alongside Spanish, Quechua is an official language in Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru. This full-length dictionary includes 3 sections: English-Quechua, Spanish-Quechua, and Quechua-Spanish-English. Spanish is a logical conduit language between Quechua and English and many Quechua words are found in Peruvian Spanish. Ideal for anthropologists, students and travelers, this dictionary features over 11,000 entries as well as an introduction to the Quechua language and basics of grammar.
This phrasebook contains a guide to English and Spanish pronunciation and grammar, paired with a guide to Quechua pronunciation and grammar, sample phrases, and sentences arranged by topic. This phrasebook pairs two of the eight most used languages in the world, English and Spanish, with Quechua, a language which is in wide use in South America. This book follows the orthography of Southern Quechua, spoken in Bolivia and across much of Peru. It is by far the most widely used dialect and often referred to as "Hanan Runasimi." This phrasebook is based on our Words R Us system, a multilingual implementation of Wordnet. It is the only initiative to pair Quechua with English via Wordnet. Currently we have over 28,000 word pairs in our Quechua / English / Spanish dictionary.

In many cases, translations include brief explanations, examples, and Latin terms. Abbreviations are used to identify Quechua terms as nouns, proper nouns, adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, or interjections. Miscellaneous papers in the collection include other fragments of vocabulary lists; a long religious poem in Spanish; draft of a letter from Gybbon Spilsbury to Dr. O. Magnasco, Argentine [?] Minister of Education regarding an educational exhibition held in London; fragments of texts in Quechua, Spanish, English, and Hebrew, the latter from the books of Deuteronomy and Joshua; a receipt signed by Gybbon Spilsbury and dated Dec. 27, 1886; a telegram, dated March 5, 1894, addressed to Gybbon Spilsbury in Via Uruguay in Buenos Aires from Leopoldo Escobro Vega; and two Buenos Aires newspaper clippings from La Nación of Oct. 12, 1896 and La Verdad of July 31, 1895.

Durante su etapa de formación académica, Santiago David Gualapuro Gualapuro formó parte del Programa de Diversidad Étnica de la Universidad San Francisco de Quito USFQ y obtuvo el título de Ingeniería Agroempresas. Este programa tiene como objetivo apoyar a los estudiantes indígenas, afroecuatorianos y otras minorías a cursar sus estudios por méritos académicos y deseos de superación para contribuir al desarrollo científico, social, económico y cultural de la sociedad ecuatoriana. Poco tiempo después Santiago David decide emprender su viaje a Canadá, para así apoyar a costear la educación de sus tres hermanos, quienes en ese preciso momento estaban estudiando diferentes carreras en la USFQ: Moisés (Biotecnología), Miguel Ángel (Arquitectura) y Digna (Medicina). En el extranjero, Santiago David decide empezar el programa de maestría en la Universidad de Alberta, que está catalogada entre las primeras cinco universidades de dicho país. Es así como él detecta que no existe un diccionario quichua en inglés. ¡Eureka! Es entonces cuando Santiago David se pone en contacto con un grupo de lingüistas de la Universidad de Alberta y comienza a trabajar en el primer diccionario inglés-quichua. El mundo del lenguaje cautiva a Santiago David, y es así como un exalumno de la USFQ aplica a su doctorado en la Universidad de Ohio, precisamente en lingüística. En Ecuador, Santiago David contacta al profesor de Antropología Lingüística y Kichwa, Simeon Floyd, parte del Colegio de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades (COCISOH), para trabajar en conjunto en el proyecto editorial: Kichwa English Shimiyuk Kamu Dictionary. Simeon relaciona el dialecto planteado por el autor en la obra con la cultura otavaleña. Tal es así que realiza el estudio introductorio para ayudar a los lectores a comprender la diversidad que comprehende el quichua en Ecuador y en países de la región. Por esta razón, la obra se concentra en el dialecto hablado en la provincia de Imbabura. Este diccionario marca un precedente en los estudios lingüísticos y filológicos del quichua. De hecho, la obra busca estrechar la brecha de los estudios internacionales con respecto a la diversidad de lenguas de la región.
In 1495, the Spanish humanist Antonio de Nebrija published a Spanish-to-Latin dictionary that became a best seller. Over the next century it was revised dozens of times, in nine European cities. As these dictionaries made their way around the globe in this age of encounters, their lists of Spanish words became frameworks for dictionaries of non-Latin languages. What began as Spanish to Latin became Spanish to Arabic, French, English, Tuscan, Nahuatl, Mayan, Quechua, Aymara, Tagalog, and more. Tracing the global influence of Nebrija's dictionary, Byron Ellsworth Hamann, in this interdisciplinary, deeply researched book, connects pagan Rome, Muslim Spain, Aztec Tenochtitlan, Elizabethan England, the Spanish Philippines, and beyond, revealing new connections in world history. The Translations of Nebrija re-creates the travels of people, books, and ideas throughout the early modern world and reveals the adaptability of Nebrija's text, tracing the ways heirs and pirate printers altered the dictionary in the decades after its first publication. It reveals how entries in various editions were expanded to accommodate new concepts, such as for indigenous languages in the Americas -- a process with profound implications for understanding pre-Hispanic art, architecture, and writing. It shows how words written in the margins of surviving dictionaries from the Americas shed light on the writing and researching of dictionaries across the early modern world. Exploring words and the dictionaries that made sense of them, this book charts new global connections and challenges many assumptions about the early modern world.
